According to TimesLIVE, the couple were supposed to celebrate their white wedding on season 3 of Uthando Lodumo but instead it showed Mampintsha’s funeral.
“We were separated by death. God took away what I loved most,” she said.
Babes got candid about whether she’d start dating again, saying she’s prefer a white man who did not talk as much.
She also said her main priority now was to focus on the rollout of Mampintsha’s Original Shandis Gin and releasing music.
“After Mampintsha’s death I was trying to get back on my feet. I’m trying to understand everything but I will be launching everything in due time.”
